Understanding Push-Fit Multi-Seal Technology

Speedfit’s core is its multi-seal push-fit mechanism ensuring leak-proof joins. This technology allows for secure connections without the need for tools or adhesives.

The internal gripping mechanism holds pipes firmly in place, while multiple sealing points prevent leaks even under varying pressure and temperature conditions. The fittings accommodate slight pipe movement and expansion/contraction without compromising the seal.

Available in plastic or brass, Speedfit covers every application need. Precision manufacturing plus exhaustive QC guarantees each fitting’s performance.

Space-Challenged Installs

John Guest Speedfit fittings excel in situations where traditional plumbing methods struggle. Push-fit makes cramped installs simple.

Threaded or soldered joins need room to work. Speedfit fits in spots wrenches can’t reach.

This design not only simplifies the installation process but also reduces the physical strain on plumbers and minimizes fire risks associated with soldering joints near combustible materials.

Leakproof by Design

When leak-free is nonnegotiable, professionals choose Speedfit.

The Superseal Grip System

Superseal grips pipes tight to stop leaks and maintain structure. Superseal’s role is vital in extending system lifespan.

Pressure Tolerance and Durability

John Guest Speedfit fittings are designed to operate under a range of pressures and temperatures, making them suitable for both hot and cold water applications. Durable builds lengthen system life and cut replacement cycles.

Thermal and pressure cycling tests prove Speedfit’s endurance. They are resistant to water treatment chemicals and varying pH levels, ensuring consistent performance. Use only for water—no gas, oil, or air. UV-resistant materials mean Speedfit works inside or out.

Reliable seals translate to less service and more uptime.
